First the good news: The Nonviolent Peaceforce for 18 years has successfully protected civilians in conflict zones by sending unarmed peace keepers to square off against heavily armed opponents.

Mel examines the reason for these new groups coming into existence, their achievements, and the why their specific tactics are so effective. Further, Mel talks about his Unarmed Civilian Good Practices Project and the collaborative conventions of global peacekeepers. Tune in and discover the forces that are positively halting destructive violence.
